[keycloak-user] Accessing Keycloak from Okta Dashboard

Wed Aug 7 05:01:40 EDT 2019

Yeah, the idea is to use a sort of Okta bookmark with the kc_idp_hint
parameter, and keep hidden the okta SAML app, and assign the bookmark & the
hidden app to the users (i don't know if it's possible, i need to speak
with the colleague responsible of Okta). I know it's a big workaround but
maybe it can work. It's something like using an SP initiated login as it
was "an IDP one" :)

Thank you,
Matteo
